I'm having some trouble understanding the difference between the Codon Sequence Change (DNA) and the Codon Sequence Change (mRNA). Help please if possible. I'm not looking for answers just a brief explanation

Hi,
Welcome to science buddies! Are you doing a science project?
DNA contains 4 nucleotide bases, adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. RNA also contains 4 nucleotide bases, adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.

Here is a website that shows the translation from DNA to m-RNA that corresponds to each amino acid.
